American Yachts.

Lieut.. HEM has arrived in England
and has been saying a good word
for American sailing vessels. He says:
Their ordinary coasting schooners
would give many of our cruising
schooner-yachts all they could do to
beat them, and most of the Glouces-
ter fishing schooners, to say nothing
OF the pilot boats, can leave most of
our cruising yachts out Of sight. The
average American cruising yacht is,
think, kept in better order, with
fewer men in proportion to her size
and spread OF canvas, than ours are.
The discipline on board is better and
the vessels are very much faster. This
last is in some measure due to the
fact that they carry more canvas in
proportion than our cruisers do, and
as rule their sails arc better cut end
set. But, taking them all round,
our cruising vessels are superior as re-
CARDS accommodation below. The
new type of centreboard sloops and
schooners ought to be pretty we'll
known over here by this time, so that
it is needless for me to say more, ex.
cept that all this talk about their be-
ing unseaworthy vessels is sheer non.
sense. Under certain conditions OF
wind and weather the Gsnesta or
Galatea might perhaps prove drier
and easier. But for speed, especially
to the windward in ordinary regatta
whether, there is no question in my
opinion of their superiority to any.

A FIGHT OVER THE FISH.
THE TREATY CLEAR FROM THE

of Commons this afternoon DR. Weldon,
member for Albert, n. B., and lately Pro-
fessor of Constitutional Law at Dalhousie
College, spoke on the fisheries He said it
was quite satisfactory to learn that the re-
sources of diplomacy had not yet been ex-
hausted in regard to this question. What
ever Canada's rights were on this question
they rested on the treaty of London of 1918

CANADA'S RIGHTS CLEAR,
They were not determined by any rule of

but we are sixty millions of peo-

the Americans have been narrow in
their construction of the Washington treaty.

had been no desire on the part of Canada

children of two great historic races in the old
world who were not accustomed to abate
one jot or little of their rights [ApplauseL
The hopes of Canada that satisfactory ar

alone on her rights, not alone on the mill
tary strength of the empire of which she
formed a part but largely on the strong
common sense and air-mindedness of the
great body of the American people, and
when Americans studied the question in
fair-minded spirit they must agree that Can

Mr.. Chamberlain addressed an audience

Cept any considerable modification of the
policy to which the Unionists took excep-

speaker had no doubt the union would be
maintained, but he would deeply regret the

rules governing the operation of the depart
ment in the suppression and extilpation of

eases. The Chief of the Bureau of Animal
Industry may cause exposed animals to be

yards in connection herewith, he is re
quired to designate suitable inspectors and
make the necessary regulations for the
quarantine and disinfecton of such boats
